<p>What do you recommend for incoming Freshman? I understand the basic differences...but can you share your experience in terms of grading and course requirements purposes.</p>
<p>If you're in SLE, I'll be one of the resident tutors there next year :).</p>
<p>Idk, but I'd like to know more as well.</p>
<p>there really is no reason to be in SLE unless you have a strong desire to study the material, which is great if you do, but it's not for everyone. i actually do not know anyone in SLE so I can't comment on what it's like, but if you don't give a crap about the humanities just don't even bother, you'll have a strong hatred for IHUM anyways.</p>
<p>They are completely different programs. SLE is a really intense program that will be a key part of both your academic and your non-academic life. It will shape your social life, for better or for worse, for the next four years. Unless you really, really love the humanities, don't do SLE.</p>
<p>IHUM, on the other hand, is a standard course just like the others you'll be taking. You can get really into it and learn a lot, or you can muddle through to satisfy the requirement. The latter is probably not possible in SLE.</p>
